Here's to a new week and what better way to start the week than with a fun "polka dot" clean and simple card! Polka Dots to me are like balloons….they simply make me smile!

There are a couple of products that I want to highlight to you…1st, the Note Cards and Envelopes! These gems , in my opinion, are very overlooked in the catalog ( pg. 162) and I love them as the are quick to make and they are very affordable!

You get (20) pre-scored cards and (20) envelopes for just $5.95! They are a perfect size when you just want to write a quick note! The envelopes also come in the Crumb Cake color as well!
I wanted to play with some of the goodies from the holiday catalog and I was sooooo darn tootin' excited with the designers series papers! This fun print for the envelope is from the ***Season of Style Paper Stack,*** I LOVE these paper stacks and I wish we had more of them….but I'll take what I can get! 

This paper was the inspiration from my card today! Keeping the theme going, I simply used the 1/2" circle punch to make the dots on the card….easy, right!!! The sweet sentiment came from the popular Chalk Talk Stamp Set and the coordination Ex-large Oval Punch made this a breeze!

To add a bit if pizzazz out came the Big Shot and using the Labels Collection Framelits…a couple of "run throughs" did the trick to create the interest and focal part of the card…of course, stampin' dimensionals were there for the POP!!!

When I received the Holiday Catalog (and YOU will love it…the items I have marked with *** means the reason you cannot link to it is because it is not available until August 1st) – my eyes went right to the ***Envelope Liners Framelits*** as if you follow my blog…I LOVE lining envelopes!

I do plan to do a blog post later in the week with some thoughts….tips and tricks to using this super new framelit and also "my traditional way" of lining my envelopes!

Many thanks to all of you that have emailed me about the "headers" of my blog are not "matching" the content…..I have put a technical support request in….and hopefully I can get it fixed….sorry – I am not doing anything different!

I have been watching the You Tube videos of the 25th Anniversary Convention…Stampin' Up! has so much to be proud of…as I am proud and honored to be part of this incredible company!

I would love for you to consider being a part of this fun! Email me or simply click here to get started! You will thank yourself "ten fold" when you experience the fulfillment you will receive from being with such a positive group of individuals…..

Until tomorrow……
